Bai Yue was curled up in a strange cluster of flowers. The inscriptions carved on her body had entered a state of overheating.
Damn it … What's wrong with this High Elves' city …
Bai Yue glanced at the unconscious Hai Lan lying on the grass beside her.
Her order was to bring Hai Lan back to the underground ruins to undergo the Ascension Ritual. It was a sacred ritual that all of them had to undergo.
However, Hai Lan refused. Not only did she refuse, she even brought an Sublimator away from their residence.
Bai Yue had no choice but to return to this terrible body of flesh and blood and bring the escapee back to the surface.
After the Ascension Ritual, Bai Yue's body was completely emptied of magic. If she wanted to continue using magic with her body, she would have to inscribe inscriptions that collected magic on her body.
The ancestors had found a way to convert human emotions into magic and applied it to Magic Dolls. Bai Yue used the same inscription circuit to modify her body, turning it into an existence that was between a Magic Doll and a human.
The effect of the modification was remarkable. Bai Yue obtained physical strength and magic control that surpassed humans, but the price was that this body's lifespan was only about a month or two.
This had nothing to do with Bai Yue … As an Sublimator, she was an immortal existence. Her body was nothing but a shackle to her.
However, Hai Lan … had rejected this gift.
"Did the people in this city eat some kind of stimulant?"
Bai Yue clutched her chest. She could hear the source of her power, her heart, beating at a high speed of 200 times per minute.
If it was a human, they would have collapsed long ago!
The reason Bai Yue could not move was not because her body was weak, but because her body was overloaded with energy.
A huge amount of magic surged in Bai Yue's body. This magic continuously strengthened her body and increased the load on her body.
Bai Yue kept adjusting her breathing. When she arrived at this desolate manor, the accumulated mana in her body began to gradually weaken and fade.
The lack of tourists around the manor was the reason why the magic in Bai Yue's body was declining, but the rate of decline was very slow …
She began to regret that her transformation was so successful.
"I need to leave this place quickly."
Bai Yue picked up the unconscious Hai Lan once more. If she remembered correctly … the emotional energy she could absorb was happiness and fear.
These two sources were chosen by her. Happiness was the source that she needed to maintain her daily activities. This was easy to obtain, and absorbing the enemy's fear during battle allowed Bai Yue to become stronger.
The purer the emotion, the more magic it could provide.
Ever since Bai Yue came to this amusement park, she had absorbed too much happiness from human consciousness …
If she continued to stay here, it was only a matter of time before she was crippled by the overload of her magical power. Or worse, she would not be able to control the magical power in her body, causing it to go berserk and explode in the worst way possible. Simply put, she would self-destruct.
Bai Yue's sharp hearing caught the footsteps at the entrance of the manor. She could only choose to hide in this strange manor for a period of time until her heartbeat returned to normal.
She carefully carried the unconscious Hai Lan through a door at the side of the manor.
Bai Yue was actually very curious as to why there would be such a dilapidated manor in the city of the High Elves.
However, she did not think that it was some undead or evil creature. The High Elves that Bai Yue knew would not allow such existences to live in their city.
"I'm sorry … Can you help me pick up the things on the ground?"
Bai Yue heard an old woman's voice as soon as she entered the door. Her heart rate, which had dropped to around 70 beats per minute, suddenly started to rise again.
Her superhuman eyesight allowed her to clearly see the figure sitting under the dim light.
It was indeed an old woman. She looked very normal from the outside. She kept rubbing her eyes as if she couldn't find her reading glasses.
"Did you lose your glasses?"
Bai Yue carefully approached the old woman while searching for her reading glasses on the ground. However, she did not see any. Instead, she saw two round objects.
Before Bai Yue could see what the objects on the ground were, she saw the old woman slowly raise her head.
"No … I lost my eyeballs," the old woman said calmly to Bai Yue.
At that moment, Bai Yue clearly saw the old woman's eye sockets. They were a mess of blood and flesh. There was clearly nothing there … A creature that looked like a millipede crawled out of the pitch-black eye sockets.
Bai Yue stood there stiffly. She forced a smile on her face, but her heart rate had returned to 120 beats per minute!
… …
"Do you believe me now?"
A girl in a maid's uniform asked pitifully in front of Messiah.
As a fellow in the same uniform, Messiah should have comforted the girl.
However, this girl was not human. She was an undead! Her body was translucent.
If he had met her anywhere else, the first thing Messiah would have done was to summon the Holy Light to purify this evil undead.
"As long as you don't attack me … I can promise not to attack you." Messiah said to the ghost girl with a cold face. No matter how she acted coquettishly to Messiah, Messiah would never give in.
"We're not here to play. Someone ran in here with a little boy. Have any of you found this combination?"
Josiah was in the hall of the Shining House. The hall was a resting place.
It was built to make tourists believe that the undead in the Shining House were friendly.
Unfortunately … there were many people like Messiah among the tourists. Therefore, Josiah arranged low-level undead like puppets in the Shining House.
Only some key places were arranged for high-level undead with their own consciousness.
"Your Highness Josiah, we have only received three guests now. There is no one among them that you mentioned." The ghost girl shook her head and said.
As soon as her voice fell, Josiah suddenly felt a slight vibration throughout the manor.
"Wh … What happened?" The tremor startled the specter girl.
"The fluctuation of magic underground … She's trying to escape."
